Special section of CTR on performance studies in Canada. January 2012.

In January 2012, the Canadian Theatre Review published a special “Views and Reviews” section on “Performance Studies in Canada” (edited by Natalie Alvarez). These pieces, some of which were presented at the Performing Publics Conference in Toronto (2010), explore alternate genealogies of performance and performance issues that have emerged in Canadian contexts, many of which trouble the very idea of a unified “national” history of performance studies.

A copy of the issue can be purchased through University of Toronto Press Journals, or accessed here. If you have an electronic subscription to the CTR, you can access the section directly here. For access through Project Muse, click here. Email info@canadiantheatrereview.com for more information.
